Burbank is hated by Los Angeles like New Jersey is hated by New York

People hate when other people want to move to Burbank instead of Los Angeles. It reminds me of how much a New Yorker hates New Jersey. Which is why New Jersey people kick serious ass when they hear about it. Based on pop culture and any TV shows depicting people from New Jersey, would you pick a fight with them? HELL NO. At least not old school Jerseyan's. (Jerseyite's?)

Burbank is different though. It's not Los Angeles, but it is very close. I'm sure a lot of people situated in deep L.A. don't want to hear that, but from an outsider-now-insider I am confident about it. Burbank is suburban. It is not ghetto. It has cleaner air than Los Angeles (until you get to the coast).

So Jersey is hated because it is supposedly worse, but Burbank is hated because it is supposedly better. Go figure. I love both areas. It is nice to get away from Los Angeles every once in a while and only going 10 minutes north is a great escape. Check out Burbank if you can. Their downtown scene is lively and plenty to do.
